Toyota RAV4 2019: It has proactive automatic four-wheel drive with Auto, Lock and Sport modes. In Auto mode, the car has front-wheel drive under normal conditions. If wheel slip is detected, torque is transferred to the rear wheels via an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch. In Sport mode, torque is transferred almost instantly between the front and rear wheels to enhance cornering performance by transferring up to 50 percent of engine power to the rear wheels. Lock mode can be activated when driving below 40 km/h (25 mph) and provides constant four-wheel drive. | |||
